It's still for sale....anyone....anyone?
If you don't buy it I'll part exchange it for a Ducati and then you'll have to pay $7000 to a dealer for the pleasure of owning this fine piece of Japanese engineering!

Only discerning buyers purchase VTR's so it may take a little time but it will sell because it is an AWESOME bike
To any newbie out there - this is the perfect bike to learn on, as McJim says the same thing will cost around $7k at a dealer so sieze your opportunity now

Yeah having a blast on them, still like the VTR though...

Why not come round for a test ride? No obligation but you'll find out what you prefer - the GPX or the VTR.

I agree, just had a quick look on and yours seems to be the cheapest. There is even a 1998 that is on for more than what you have it listed.
I know you want to sell it but don't undervalue what is essentially a great bike that has better extras (e.g. Givi screen) than the others.
I'm guessing you are still in no hurry to sell so no need to discount the price.

I'm not a motorcycle dealer - the other VTR's are for sale with warranties etc.
Okay so there are a couple of private sales on there for too much but to quote ythe fella from the Castle "They're dreamin'!"
It's a bargain. I'm hoping the sort of people that will bid on it are people who bought a GN250/SR250/Scorpio 225/FXR150 and realise that they bought a bike they would grow out of very quickly but don't want to spend $6,000 on a 25 year old 4 cylinder bike.
It's possibly because I admit there's scratches on it rather than the other vendors who keep quiet in the hope the buyer doesn't notice them?

I just suggested that you had the price up high for a couple of weeks.. you only need one person to buy it. If no bites, then drop the price and leave it there till it sells.
From a buyers point of view they see a cheaper bike and think "something must be wrong with it". We all know there isnt and it's a minter but may set off their alarm bells...

I haven't actually dropped the price this time around though - it just looks that way. Reserve is still $5,500 and the Buy Now is $6,000.
If the auction runs it's course and it still doesn't sell I'll put it on again at the higher price.
Just thought $5,500 would be a good opportunity to help a beginner KBer get a mint first bike.

Thought I'd give this a bump here since it's not quite sold yet.
Recent work done(last 2,000km)
New air filter
New oil filter
New oil
New brake pads front and rear
New chain (had a tight spot so changed it before damage to sprockets)
I will be changing the rear tyre before it's sold coz the Southern motorway comute has squared it off.
This bike will also be sold with 6 months registration and a recent WOF.
